The fawn leaf-nosed bat[2] or fawn roundleaf bat (Hipposideros cervinus) is a species of bat in the family Hipposideridae found in Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vanuatu. It was previously found in Singapore, but may have become extinct there.[1]
Description[edit]
Hipposideros cervinus is a medium-sized Hipposiderid (forearm 44-50mm, 5-10 grammes) with two lateral leaflets on its nose leaf.[3] Noseleaf is greyish pink, ears triangular.[4] Pups are dark gray in coloration, maturing to a dark brown in adults which often becomes bleached over time, turning a bright orange colour due to the ammonia from droppings in communal roosts.
Ecology and behaviour[edit]
A communal rooster, is commonly found roosting in caves and trees. In 1958 Medway estimated the Niah population to be 250,000.[citation needed]
